The “European Habitat”, which will take place on 16 to 18 March, 2016 in Prague, is an international regional conference organised within the framework of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) in cooperation with the Ministry of Regional Development of the Czech Republic. UNECE is one of five regional commissions of the United Nations, bringing together 56 member countries from Europe, the Balkans, North America and a part of Asia. The event is an official part of preparations for the third global UN Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development “Habitat III” to be held in Ecuador in October 2016. The European Habitat is one of the first UN implementing conferences reflecting the goals of UN post-2015 Development Agenda.

The topic of the European Habitat Conference is “Housing in Liveable Cities”. The official outcome of the European Habitat Conference will be the document called “The Prague Declaration” which will follow the Geneva UN Charter on Sustainable Housing, a  strategic document which the Prague Declaration will develop further.

All the information about the event, getting around or about the Czech Republic is available at the web sites www.europeanhabitat.com, or www.habitat3.org/prague. We invite you to register as soon as possible!
